Eli Manning organizes Giants offensive workout at Hoboken High School

Mike Garafolo/The Star-LedgerGiants quarterback Sage Rosenfels and wide receivers Hakeem Nicks and Samuel Giguere run sprints at Hoboken High School's field during a workout of offensive players organized by quarterback Eli Manning (rear).

Though the Giants' players are locked out, they still have to get their workouts in. And in Eli Manning's mind, the month of May means he and his targets have to get some passing drills in. So they did what they had to do.

They went back to high school.

Well, not their high school. Hoboken High. Today, Manning ran passing drills with a group of 11 players that included wide receiver Hakeem Nicks, tight end Kevin Boss and running back D.J. Ware.

Manning, a Hoboken resident who wanted to keep the workout as secret as possble, declined to comment afterward, saying with a smile he's "retired from interviews until the lockout is over." But a few other players had some things to say.

We'll have more from those players in a full story to be posted here later.
